Set Time-zone in Brightidea


Brightidea offers the option to set the time zone of your Brightidea site via System Setup.

    • Navigate to System Setup > Site > General Settings
    • Select the desired timezone from the drop-down menu:

  • This time zone configuration will cascade into select exports, search, ideas, comments, vote time stamps, and others (mostly end user facing).
    • Note: Not all places in Brightidea will respect the selected time zone setting. Some back-end lists (Steps view and List view) and certain exports will continue to use the default system time (UTC).
  • The time zone will automatically respect daylight savings, so no additional changes are needed.

    I do not see Daylight time as an option on my Enterprise Setup-Site-Components-Time Zone pulldown menu. How can I change this to the Central Daylight time?
